- Aggregate Throughput: 4.8 Gbps (commonly cited; Ubiquiti datasheet not verified)
- Radios (bands): 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz (tri-band, simultaneous)
- Uplink Port Speed: 1x 2.5GbE RJ45
- Max Clients: 600+ concurrent clients (third-party listings)
- PoE Requirement: 802.3at PoE+ (approx. 22 W power consumption per listing)
Curation Review
- ✔ Pros: Tri-band Wi-Fi 6E with dedicated 6 GHz band for less congestion; 2.5GbE uplink exceeds standard 1GbE APs; Strong MU-MIMO support for dense client environments; Supports UniFi Network controller for centralized management, monitoring and configuration; Standard PoE+ (802.3at) power, so no injector needed on most switches; Wall-mountable and ceiling-mountable enterprise form factor
- ✘ Cons: Requires PoE+ (802.3at) switch port, so it may not work with PoE-only or budget switches; 6 GHz band has limited client device support today; Needs a UniFi Network controller (self-hosted or cloud key) for full management; Aggregate throughput and spatial stream figures vary between third-party listings, so verify against Ubiquiti's official datasheet; Price is higher than consumer or mid-range Wi-Fi 6 access points; Real-world throughput per client is typically well below the aggregate rating
- Est. Price: $249 - $328
